LIVE ONLY: Gather the entire household for an evening of exclusive virtual entertainment to kick off SHRM Talent Conference & Expo 2021!

We'll kick off with "Juggling and Jokes," presented by Laugh.Events, with Former Andy Kaufman Award Winner, Marcus Monroe, as he takes you through a rollercoaster act that features stand up comedy & juggling - all at the same time. Followed by a networking comedy hour with four different comic standups pair with networking breakout groups to get to know your Talent colleagues.

Then dive into The SHRM Comedy Club presented by Stand-Up Socials featuring a live host, who will welcome the audience and speak with various members about their comedy tastes.  The host will then introduce a comedian, selected specifically for your audience.  We then watch a pre-recorded comedy set, taped in front of a live audience.  At the end of the set, our host will present one of the many fun(ny) conversation starter questions, as the entire gallery is broken into small breakout groups to discuss.  After 3-4 minutes, we come back to the full gallery and our host will speak with some of the participants about their answer to the last question.  Our host will then introduce the next comedian...When all clips and discussions are finished, we offer the attendees a chance to stay on and have an After Party, where they can talk more and meet additional people from the event.
